Bio: Chiara Condello is a young talent in Predappio, a commune in Romagna that prizes their smaller-berried, thicker-skinned Sangiovese. After taking a more prominent role in her father's winery Condé in 2012, she began her own project in 2015 by purchasing her own vineyards that were destined to be ripped out by a neighbor who saw no future in them. She oversees the vineyards for both, but is truly honing her talents in the cellar. Her wines are all fermented spontaneously with minimal intervention.
She is an incredible talent, an intuitive winemaker, and a boon to international winemaking culture.
